I am sorry, I should have known better to include those info (well I wouldn't
think of `locale`, first time I heard bout that command, all this encoding
stuff still confuses me)
FVWM-2.5.10.
In my .fvwmrc (I think I just copy paste this from an example in the manual):
FvwmButtons: Font -*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-12-*
$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
Thanks.
